And the story behind it is just perfect!<br />I have the same mix master as you, and a very similar sifter...but alas no jam stick. I do however have my great grandmothers bottling utensils from her Fowlers Vacola...worn down wooden handles that hold so much history. I love using them, it really feels like I can connect to my past.<br />I loved your blog in the past and am revisiting it and thoroughly enjoying it<br />Cassandra xxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8033398967737588792.post-48006485630622347752010-02-28T17:57:52.171+11:002010-02-28T17:57:52.171+11:00That is so true how smells can evoke wonderful mem...That is so true how smells can evoke wonderful memories.<br />I rememeber many years ago I was working in a shop when I smelt the very familiar smell of Velvet soap and I was immediately transported back to 9 or 10 years of age and sitting with my Nan while she taught me how to crochet. She always smelt like Velvet soap and talcum powder. It was a lovely, although bittersweet memory, as she had passed away long ago. Thanks for reminding me today, you brought a smile to my face.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16907021712935423492noreply@blogger.com
